SW - SOUTHERN WONDER SAFARI
DAY-TO-DAY ITINERARY OUTLINE
| DAY 1 | Arrive at Namibia's International airport where your host and transport will meet you. Transfer to Windhoek for a quick tour of its sights and sounds before settling into a comfortable B&B facility on the outskirts of Windhoek. Relax after the long flight and acclimatize to Namibia. |
| DAY 2 | A leisurely breakfast before heading south. Travelling along the perimeter of Namibia's central highlands, you will make a pit-stop as you reach the edge of the escarpment. Breathe the fresh air of the mountains as an endless vista of the Namib desert unfolds at your feet, while enjoying a picnic lunch. Descend into the desert towards a desert camp for your first night in the Namib desert. |
| DAY 3 | An early start to enter the valley leading to Sossusvlei and the highest sand dunes in the world. Experience a sea of dunes and mountains that never seem to end. Return to the lodge for a quick stop, before continuing towards a desert nature camp in the southern Namib as your next venue. |
| DAY 4 | Entire day at leisure to enjoy a mountain drive and guided hike, to fully appreciate the wide open spaces and unpolluted air. |
| DAY 5 | As you penetrate deeper into the Namib desert today, and you think that nothing can surprise you anymore, the landscape changes once more. Subject to time of year, the entire landscape appears to be one massive artist's canvas, with a completed water-colour painting on it - all in pastel colours! Arrive at the fairy-tale town of Lüderitz on the South Atlantic coast |
| DAY 6 | Return to the Interior with a visit to the ghost town of Kolmanskop en-route. Arrive at the "home-base" of Namibia's famous feral horses of the Namib. |
| DAY 7 | A special treat today as you enter a previously forbidden diamond area - appropriately named, Sperrgebiet! This unique, pristine wilderness remain - due to the diamond mining activities - uninhabited, and is only now possible to visit on a special concession. |
| DAY 8 | Continue into southern Namibia, where you will sleep in the immediate vicinity of the Fish River canyon. |
| DAY 9 | The largest canyon in the southern hemisphere and the second largest on the African continent. Travel towards your next night stop, a southern Kalahari camp where you may view more than 5000 unique Quiver Trees. |
| DAY 10 | A leisurely breakfast before heading north-east towards a lodging in the central Kalahari desert. Time to find your bearings, relax and freshen up, then end your day with a scenic drive through this section of the Kalahari desert. |
| DAY 11 | Although moving further north today, you shall continue within the Kalahari desert to reach your next lodging. A Game- & guest farm in the eastern Kalahari. Meet the local San or Bushman as they welcome you in dance. |
| DAY 12 | Feel the crisp morning air as you join a Bushman tracker for a short, but pleasant, walk through the desert. Observe these dwarf-like, friendly people's knowledge and skills of survival in the Kalahari. |
| DAY 13 | There is no particular rush this morning, you may sleep a little later, or get up early and walk around the farm before returning to Windhoek. Arrive at a small Game Lodge en-route to the airport in time for lunch, allowing for a short siesta before joining a sundowners, scenic drive for a final glimpse of our sunset on this, your last night in Namibia, Africa. |
| DAY 14 | Subject to flight departure time, a leisurely morning for nature walks, or finishing those last exposures on the film or memory disc. Transfer to Namibia's International airport to arrive in time for your departure flight. |
